Goodreads asked P.K. Silverson:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

P.K. Silverson Be prepared for questions you don't want to answer. "What else do you have?" is always a lot of fun to deal with. "What's your favorite thing you've written?"... as if all the stuff you did is secondary to one thing. "Why are you doing this?" and "How much did you make?" take a lot of fun out of trying to reach your reader, but people ask anyway. And then there's the tough question... "Do you have what it takes to get knocked down over and over and keep coming back until you realize your dream?" Nobody can tell you not to be a writer... except for you.
